Has there been a few sin binnings ? Austin was mentioned earlier. Should have been binned against Leeds.

Apologies, my error. I meant 10 mins, will correct it now.

Why is it so close?

Maybe Rovers don’t have a bad side this year, that’s why it could be close?.

Conversion good, 22-14, 9 mins left.

[stevereed100]

Is there an echo? Missed the first bit!

[stevereed100]

Lineham waves a card at the touch judge. Has he been watching too much football.

Debate suggests Austin is heading for a ban for wiping Tomkins out with the elbow!

[Old Frightful]

Why has Vaivai been dropped Steve/Red Robin?

Thought he was a leading light for your lot.

[Red robin]

He’s on the bench.

Thanks, slight loss of form or summat?

Ratchford MOM, crowd 10,500 ish.

[stevereed100]

Too many good players to select from.He has started the season as a second stringer but so has our top try and goal scorer Ryan Shaw,and others.

Just need a few injuries to test our depth out!

 

[Old Frightful]

Cooper finishes Rervers off.

26-14.

[Old Frightful]

28-14, full tarm.

Good effort by our East Hull friends.

[Rupert Prince]

Off topic, as I am waitng for SKY to start at Catalans...

With a day pass I looked at Fulham v MU.

Easy win for MU.  But the game looked slow, maybe because of all the moronic chanting. The commentators were also hardly enthusiastic.   I am guessing that tonight on MOD however their producers and commentators will turn it and the others into world beaters.  The Football  game is stealing a living.

It has to be said these days that most excitement in football takes place in injury time.  

Sorry for being off topic.

[Red robin]

Heard Austin took out Tompkins with an elbow, he may be sitting it out for the next few weeks.

No one is saying you do, but Warrington were heavy favourites today.

[ELBOWSEYE]

Scrappy game, rovers played well with a big pack, McGuire still a quality player.still happy with a win.

[stevereed100]

Joel Tomlin's consigned to Hospital by Ambulance after cowardly late elbow on ground by Blake Austin.

Expect RL Discipline to do it's business but as always no help to injured party on the day.

What actually happened? Do you mean he dropped an elbow to the head when he was on the ground?

I would need to see it but if that's the case then I would expect a sizeable ban.

Hope Joel is ok.
